After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package avatar_service

Avatar Service

Elgg 3.0 Build Status Scrutinizer Code Quality Latest Stable Version License

Provides a service to get an Elgg avatar in a Gravatar like way

How to use

Base Request

Avatar images may be requested just like a normal image, using an IMG tag. To get an image specific to a user, you must first calculate their email hash.

The most basic image request URL looks like this:

http://www.yoursite.com/avatar_service/HASH

where HASH is replaced with the calculated hash for the specific email address you are requesting. The hash is an md5 of the lowercased version of an emailaddress.

For example, here is the base URL for the [email protected] emailaddress:

http://www.yoursite.com/avatar_service/dfb0624735f6756ede0693f1c8e94a8c

If you require a file-type extension (some places do) then you may also add an (optional) .jpg extension to that URL:

http://www.yoursite.com/avatar_service/dfb0624735f6756ede0693f1c8e94a8c.jpg

Size

By default, images are presented at 80px by 80px if no size parameter is supplied. You may request a specific image size, which will be dynamically delivered by using the s= or size= parameter and passing a single pixel dimension (since the images are square):

http://www.yoursite.com/avatar_service/dfb0624735f6756ede0693f1c8e94a8c?s=200

You may request images anywhere from 1px up to 2048px, however note that many users have lower resolution images, so requesting larger sizes may result in pixelation/low-quality images.

Default Image

What happens when an email address has no matching user or user avatar? You will get the default user icon of the community.
